Bazza, all jokes aside, don't you lot think that you need to tidy up your behaviour on the roads?

It's like you vegans all have a chip on your shoulder about something. Inferiority complex. "We have to show the drivers that it's are road too so lets piiss them off as much as we can".

That kind of thing y'know.

I shall agree to stop riding on the pavement and skipping red lights at pedestrian crossings if you agree to stop killing people? Seems fair?

Had to wait to pass a cyclist yesterday. Plonked himself right in the middle of the lane* making sure no driver could get past him without joining the next lane. This is what I mean. They pay tax and should ride where they feel safest.

Fixed it for you.

Pedestrians: Cyclists shouldn't be on pavements/footpaths

Drivers: Cyclists shouldn't be on the roads.



Should cyclists have their own provision?

Pedestrians and drivers: No

Cycled through oxford street last night. 3 morons walked out in front of me looking at their phones. I clipped one but managed to slam on for the other 2. They think a city centre is pedestrianised. The sooner the government make the city pedestrianised then the less morons will be hurt

I spend most of my journeys avoiding moron pedestrians and stupid drivers usually all on phones.

Don’t get me started on taxi drivers. Saw that programme the other night and it was taco drivers claiming we think we own the road. Firstly we do and secondly they just stop wherever they want usually without indicators and do u-turns on busy roads which is highly illegal.

I got the tube this morning with the rest of the lemmings

He looks like he's a vegan too.

There’s no better sight than a cyclist fixing a puncture when it’s pi$$ing down

Cyclist jailed.

Remind me why we need licences on bikes?

I would reply and say that the car drivers that killed pedestrians look like Brexit voters, but there's more than 17 million pedestrian killing drivers so that would be an unfair generalisation.

It bothers you lot so much that you're not accepted on the roads.

Car drivers, van drivers, motorcyclists and pedestrians hate you.

Mr Chelsea should cyclists have separate provision?

How do you mean?

So cars have roads, pedestrians have pavements, and cyclists have their own separated provision in between? Eg:

A separate cycle track seems sensible to be honest but it's not feasible to have it everywhere though.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
What would you suggest in places where it was not feasible due to space constraints? Traffic calming or reduction measures to improve safety?

It'd be better if you fackers weren't on the roads at all mate.

posted on 12/7/19

Here's a quick explanation of how that would work.

Your average moving speed when driving to work with cyclists allowed on roads: 20mph

Your average moving speed when driving to work with cyclists not allowed on roads: 0mph.



Your journey time into work with cyclists not allowed on roads: ∞

Just ordered my new bike, worth more than most of these anti bike tools cars no doubt.

Pay a cycle tax, sure. Insurance, sure.

Will gloat as I glide through congestion on my way into work on Fridays and knock over pedestrians and run red lights to get my best Strava times.

I hope you have also ordered some good locks! Which would probably have to weigh more than the bike itself.

9k for that?

Commute to the office and it will live inside.

Then for the odd cafe dash on a club ride I will risk it. It’s just the n+1 rule and I couldn’t resist.
